After Shaving Vagina Was Itchy. After Sex Vaginal Lymph Node Was Swollen. What Is The Reason?
Hello, i am an 18 year old girl. A few days ago i shaved my private area (the razor was never used, fresh out the package) and noticed maybe an hour later the my vagina was very itchy. However i ignored it, thinking it was nothing, and later that night had intercourse (we used a condom). But after sex, i noticed that my vaginal lymph node was swollen on the left side. The next day the top of my urethra (where it meets with the rest my the vagina) was red, itchy and tender. My vaginal lymph nodes were also now swollen on both sides. It has been three days and nothing has gotten better. What is happening to me?

Hi,
From history it seems that you might be having some bacterial infection followed by shaving.
Go for one antibiotic medicine course for 2-3 days.
Apply antibiotic cream locally.
Keep local hygiene proper.
Ok and take care.
